    第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题：每小题2.5分，满分50分）
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
    Today, as in every other day of the year, more than 3000 U.S. adolescents will smoke their first cigarette on their way to becoming regular smokers as adults. During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths attributed to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death.
    Since the late 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised.
    First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors exceeded that among female by nearly 10 percent. The statistic is reversing. Third, several recent studies have indicated high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent.
    Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade, no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking levels among youth.
    36. According to the author, the deaths among youth are mainly caused by __________.
    A. traffic accidents                                   B. smoking-related disease
    C. murder                                                 D. all of these
    37. Every day there are over ______ high school students who will become regular smokers.
    A. 750                         B. 23                    C. 30                    D. 3000
    38. By “dropout” the author means __________.
    A. students who failed the examination        B. students who left school
    C. students who lost their way                    D. students who were driven out of school
    39. The reason for declining adolescent smoking is that __________.
    A. NCI has taken effective measures           
    B. smoking is prevented among high school seniors
    C. there are many smokers who have died of cancer          
    D. none of these
    40. What is implied but not stated by the author is that __________.
    A. smoking rates among youth have declined very little     
    B. there are now more female than male smokers among high school seniors
    C. high smoking rates are due to the increase in wealth
    D. smoking at high school is from low socio-economic backgrounds

    任务型阅读
    (Reuters) - A U.N. climate deal due to be agreed in Copenhagen at talks from December 7-18 may fall short of a legally binding(有约束力的) agreement. If Copenhagen fails to live up to hopes of a strong agreement to slow global warming, what are the reasons and who risks blame? The following are some of the candidates:
    ● Decline in economy distracted(分散) focus from climate change after the world agreed in Bali, Indonesia, in 2007 to work out a new U.N. agreement by December 2009. Rich nations have put billions of dollars into green growth as part of recovery packages but, when unemployment at home is high, find it hard to promise extra money for developing countries. The slowdown in industrial output means a brief fix -- greenhouse gas emissions(排放) are likely to fall by as much as 3 percent this year.
    ● Many delegates at U.N. talks have given up hope that the United States, the number two emitter after China, will agree legislation(立法, 法律) to limit carbon emissions before Copenhagen. The US is the only industrialized nation outside the Kyoto Protocol(京都协议书) for cutting greenhouse emissions until 2012. Many countries welcomed President Barack Obama's promises of doing more to fight climate change when he took office in January but hoped for swifter action.
    ● Developing nations accuse the rich of repeatedly failing to keep promises of more aid. Few developed countries live up to a target agreed by the U.N. General Assembly in 1970 to give 0.7 percent of their gross domestic product in development aid. Other plans, such as the Agenda 21 environmental development plan agreed in 1992, have fallen short.
    ● Most rich nations are promising cuts in greenhouse gas emissions well short of the 25-40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020, which are needed to avoid the worst of climate change. Overall cuts promised by developed nations total between 11 and 15 percent. Best offers by countries including Japan, the European Union, Australia and Norway would reach the range.
    ● More than 90 percent of the growth in emissions between now and 2030 is set to come from developing nations -- with almost 50 percent from China alone, U.S. climate envoy Todd Stern said this week. "No country holds the fate of the earth more in its hands than China. Not one," he said. China and India say they are slowing the growth of emissions but raising living standards is more important. So burning more energy is unavoidable -- as industrialized nations have done for 200 years.
    ● 2008 was the 10th warmest year since records began in the mid-19th century. The warmest was 1998, when a strong El Nino event in the eastern Pacific disrupted(使混乱) weather worldwide. That has led some to argue that global warming is slowing even though the U.N.'s WMO(世界气象组织) says a long-term warming trend is unchanged.
    ● People have been slow in changing lifestyles to use less carbon. Simple choices like taking more public transport, using less heating or air conditioning, even changing light bulbs can help if millions of people act.(508)
    Who's to blame if U.N. climate deal falls short?
    Possible candidates
    		Supporting Details
    ___71___downturn
    		● Faced with the______72____ rising unemployment, rich countries fail to give more aid to developing ones.
    ●____73_____industrial output brings about a temporary relief from the pressure of greenhouse gas emissions.
    United States
    		● It’s the only industrialized country outside the Kyoto Protocol.

    ● Developing nations need to give ___78____to raising living standards by burning more energy.

    第四部分：写作（共三节, 满分40分）
    第一节阅读填空（共10小题; 每小题1分，满分10分）
    阅读短文，根据所读内容, 在下表中的空格处填上适当的单词和短语，每空不超过3个单词。
    Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been proved that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles. When a fragrant flavor（香味）was added to the vitamin-enriched water, the rat did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water. In time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were.
    In a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria（自助餐厅） feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before them. They were given what ever food they pointed to or appeared interested in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced diet.
    So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what’s best for them. Obviously, there is a ‘body wisdom’, which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habits. Some people eat fox, dog and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around us.
    Research on eating habits
    76._______       
    		To find out the relationship between the need of the body and eating.
     
    78._______        
    		Subjects

    		●81. _  water with vitamins to water without vitamins.
    ●Drink water with fragrant flavor first, then turn to water 82.      __  .
    83.         of 6-12 months
    		Given whatever they pointed to or were interested in.
    		84.__   unusual eating patterns at first, later select a well-balanced diet.
    Conclusion
    		Rats and babies have a 85.   ____   in selecting food.

    请阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。
    When I get off the bus, I’m usually greeted by the sounds of news on CNN. My father welcomes me, and I help him with the usual things—changing the channel and some other tasks. My father has a disease that makes him unable to walk. Despite his disability, my father has always been my role model.
    In my first year at middle school, my grades slipped greatly. My father told me I could improve. I currently maintain a B plus average, and he confidently supports me in all my academic efforts. He is against violence to the best of his ability. Love is his most important tool,and he makes sure we know that violence is never the answer.
    He urges me not to fear,but to believe in what I think is right.“No matter what anyone tells me,”he says,“I believe what I choose. If someone is discriminating against you for who you are, they don’t deserve your time.”My friends are the most caring people I’ve met, because I realize that they don’t judge me, and they like me as I am.
    I’ve always found it strange that people pity me because of my father’s condition. He’s not inferior(次于) to anyone. His disease doesn’t hold him back. He’s normal person.
    When I see disabled people out in public, I consider them equal to any other individual. No one is superior to anyone for any physical reason. I’ve known that from that day on, thanks to my dad.
    “Anything else?”I’ll ask.
    “No, that’s fine.”
    As I walk to my room, I think my dad who teaches me the most important things I’ll ever need to know. My father is in no way inferior to anyone else. If anything, he’s even better.

    Every kid wishes to be an adult. But now as grown-ups, some adults find they cannot leave childhood behind. They become "kidults" (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people across Asia.
    Some kidults collect toys they once played with.  Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-something woman with a big, Garfield-shaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory.
    Other kidults still enjoy children's stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a children's book!
    "Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society," said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at Hankuk University(韩国外国语大学). He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He may be right.
    Tim Greenhalgh,a professor,explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood.
    1. We can infer from the article that _________.
    A. Kidults miss their childhood so much that they can't give up their toys
    B. Bloomsbury knows some kidults don't want people to know that they are kidults
    C. Kidults like to have vitamins very much
    D. Some toys are so interesting that even adults like them very much
    2. According to the author, being a kidult is good in some way except that _______.
    A. it can improve the relationship between parents and their kids
    B. it can help kidults feel relaxed
    C. it is helpful to solve some social problems
    D. it can make people loyal to one's parents
    3. According to the writer, _______.
    A. being a kidult is nothing wrong      B. kidults have mental problems
    C. our society is very dull             D. some people can never grow up

    “Don’t go down to that pond — it's dangerous!” Stephanie angrily shouted at her children. She’d overheard them talking about playing near the water on the golf course close to their apartment. It was a Saturday, and 8-year-old Jeremiah was heading outside with his 11-year-old sister, Tiara, and their 13-year-old cousin, Evon McDuffie. They often went to the George Wilson Community Center in Newark, Delaware, just three houses away from their apartment building.
    The Wilson center was a good place of activity for the community, especially in warm weather. But January 20, 2006, was a rainy day with winds. It’s a good day to play inside the center. Unfortunately, the three children had other ideas.
    Taking no notice of what Stephanie had said, Evon, Tiara and Jeremiah walked beyond the tree line at the back of the community center and headed toward the large pond. The kids climbed through a gap in the fence, then passed a No Entering sign posted on a metal gate nearby. As they reached the pond, they also walked by a No Skating sign.
    Tiara and Evon first stepped on the surface ice, and when it held, the children went out on the pond. Evon shouted out to Jeremiah, “I bet you can't cross the whole thing.”
    “I bet you I can,” Jeremiah replied, and he took off across the pond.
    He made it to the other side, but as he came back, Jeremiah stepped on the thinner ice. The thin surface collapsed under his feet, and the boy sank into the cold water. Evon raced back to the apartment for help, while frightened Tiara tried to reach Jeremiah as he struggled to keep his head above water. But he kept slipping beneath the surface.
    When firefighters arrived, all they could see was Jeremiah's coat floating on the water. As the unconscious child was rushed to the hospital, his life was saved, for now, but the effects of hypothermia (降低体温) and lack of oxygen left Jeremiah with serious brain damage.
    1. Stephanie shouted at her children because_____________.
    A. the children didn’t behave very well at home
    B. they were too young to play outside
    C. it was raining
    D. the children secretly planned to go to the pond
    2. It was __________ that made Jeremiah take courage to cross the ice.
    A. Evon’s challenge              B. the mother’s words
    C. No Entering sign                 D. the view on the other bank
    3. What does the underlined word “collapsed” probably mean?
    A. changed suddenly             B. broke into pieces
    C. became thinner            D. floated away
    4. Which of the following is the right order of the events that happened to Jeremiah?
    a. Firefighters came and rescued Jeremiah.
    b. The kids climbed through the fence and to the pond.
    c. Jeremiah walked across the ice.
    d. The kids planned to play on the pond.
    e. When Jeremiah made a way back, he sank.
    A. b, d, c, e, a B. d, b, a, e, c     C. d, b, c, e, a       D. a, e, c, d, b
